Trinseo PLC (TSE)

Trinseo Plc's stock has experienced significant volatility and decline over the past six months, with a 52-week range between $0.42 and $5.99. As of early February 2026, the stock price was around $0.46, representing an approximate 88.61% decline over the past year. Key events impacting the stock price include the Q3 2025 earnings release with an EPS of -$2.41 and net sales of $743 million, the Q2 2025 earnings release with an EPS of -$2.95, the Annual General Meeting held on June 25, 2025, and restructuring initiatives involving ceasing virgin MMA production in Italy and closing a polystyrene asset in Germany.

Trinseo's demand is influenced by seasonal factors and raw material prices, with an exaggerated seasonal effect in December for its formulated products. Demand for polystyrene products has been affected by spikes in styrene prices, and the appliances market in Europe and Asia has experienced considerable destocking.
